Personal testimony of a hospice nurse standing in handcuffs in a heat wave for the crime of blockading the bank that’s financing it.
I go to court tomorrow to face charges for the same thing, and I’m taking her words with me.
I’m honored to be her co-defendant.

A must-read piece by @SonaliKolhatkar: "Biden Should End the Fossil Fuel Industry’s Secret Weapon"

Any deal that blocks public interest regulation is a bad deal.
